College Football Week 2: Florida's Billy Napier Faces Criticism While Arch Manning Shines
The Gators' struggles and notable performances from various teams highlight this week's college football battles.
College football always surprises, and Week 2 was no exception. In a shocking turn of events, South Florida outplayed No. 13 Florida in a nail-biter, benefiting from a last-minute field goal by Nico Gramatica after the Gators endured a series of mistakes.
In a historic rivalry game, Iowa State bested Iowa with a remarkable 54-yard field goal from kick Kyle Konrardy, snapping a long losing streak against their rivals. Ole Miss barely edged past Kentucky while Illinois triumphed over Duke. Meanwhile, Arch Manning, the quarterback for Texas, showcased his skills by connecting with receiver Parker Livingstone, resulting in a remarkable performance against San Jose State.
On the flip side, Oklahoma State faced a rout at the hands of Oregon, an embarrassing 69-3 defeat that may signal a bleak future for coach Mike Gundy. The Cowboys lost sequential games by large margins for the first time in their history.
In the forthcoming games of the day, teams like Michigan and Arizona State look to prove themselves against tough opponents.
